Saturday Coffee Cafe - Awesomeness!

 Hey, Coffee Loving fans!  Glad you stopped in to the Cafe today because there's something purrrr-fect brewing!

It may seem like a black cat walked in front of the entire world these last several months, but this little kitty is bringing only awesomeness...coffee awesomeness!

For my card, I layered cardstock and pattern paper for the background.  This sweet little coffee-loving kitty is a die from Waffle Flower called Be A Cat...I just love him!  He's holding a glittery mug of java that was created with MFT Stamps Hot Cocoa Cups.  I white embossed one the STAMPlorations sentiments in the Fond Expressions set then cut it out using one of the Pink & Main Stitched Oval dies.

Hope YOUR day is filled with awesomeness...and a fabulous cup of your favorite brew!

 

Saturday Coffee Cafe - Coffee Cup Cutie

Hey, Friends!  Welcome to the Saturday Coffee Cafe -- I'm so glad you were able to stop in today!   If you're like me, you could use a breather.  I know it's only the 18th day of 2020, but I've been going non-stop and feels like it should be March! Let's grab a cup 'o joe and I'll show what's been happening in my craft room.

Cuteness!  I had so much fun putting this card together and got to play with several items that hadn't been opened yet.  I'm sure you can relate to finding a few brand new goodies in your stash :)

The cup shaped base was created with Trinity Stamps Coffee Mug Die.  Using the die, I cut the front from a new pattern paper from Pink & Main (shhh...it's a sneak peek).

And how cute is that little kitty sticking out the top?!!  She's from Waffle Flower Be Her set.  The fun sentiment is from Lil Inker Designs Coffee Talk 2 set.  It was hard to choose one sentiment from this set because they are all super!

 I love that the Coffee Mug Card Die comes with a gift card die, too.  Perfect for the inside and to tuck a little surprise gift.  

The sentiment says exactly what I want to do today - how 'bout you?!

Hello Pumpkin Spice

It's already Day Four of the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!  I've been so wow'd by all the fantastic coffee/tea/cocoa themed projects already linked up.  Are you playing?  There are TONS of prizes to be won!

 I've had this darling set in my stash for a while and was so excited to ink it up!  I started my card using Whimsy Stamps PEEKABOO WINDOW 2 DIE and blended TUMBLED GLASS DISTRESS OXIDE INK for the squares.  I then stamped and colored these adorable mice from Waffle Flower PUMPKIN stamp set!

Saturday Coffee Cafe - Tea-rific!

 

Welcome to the Saturday Coffee Café – I’m so glad you dropped in!

I love coffee, but on occasion, a hot cup of tea can be very soothing!  When I’m not feeling well or in a pensive mood, a big mug of two-tea-bags tea really does the trick to ease my tired mind or stuffy nose.

My card features these fun images from Waffle Flower Crafts Tea Party stamp set that I copic colored – which is wonderful therapy in and of itself!  For the background, I used Stampin Up Blushing Bride cardstock and embossed with Tim Holtz Ringer Texture Fades embossing folder.  The pattern paper is from Reverse Confetti Fun Times 6x6 paper pad.  For the frame, I used Paper Sweeties Scallop Square Frame die cut from Reverse Confetti Royal Purple and Premier Polar White cardstock.  The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp Sprinkles Coffee and Tea set.

I'm excited to be playing in these fun challenges!
